It's been my experience that the I/O setting on the rang is pretty touchy.
I found the spot where it works with my setup and marked it on the back.
One of the bad things about the rang is that the input level control gets
knocked around almost every time I pack it up. Play around with it and see
if you can find the semi-sweet spot where it's not clipping too often and
not too noisy.
